scree/talus
A rock containing organic debris is called a sedimentary rock. This type of rock forms from the accumulation and compression of organic materials like plant and animal remains. Over time, these organic materials become compacted and cemented together to form a rock.

Moraines are formed by the accumulation of unconsolidated rock debris, such as sand, gravel, and boulders, that have been transported and deposited by glaciers. The debris is carried along by the moving glacier and then left behind as the glacier retreats or melts, creating ridges or mounds of sediment.
Yes, soil and rock debris can accumulate on the continental slope due to processes like mass wasting, turbidity currents, and sediment transport by ocean currents. This accumulation can result in the formation of underwater features like submarine canyons and sediment fans.
Organic sedimentary rock is a type of sedimentary rock that forms from the accumulation and lithification of organic materials, such as plant debris, shells, or coral. Examples include coal, limestone, and some types of shale. These rocks often contain fossils and can provide valuable information about past environments.
an accumulation of boulders, stones, or other debris carried and deposited by a glacier.
The accumulation of rock debris at the base of a cliff is called talus or scree. It forms as a result of weathering and erosion causing rock fragments to break off from the cliff face and accumulate at the bottom.

Loose rock material on the Moon is referred to as "regolith." This layer of fragmented rock, dust, and debris covers the lunar surface, resulting from billions of years of meteoroid impacts and geological processes. Regolith varies in thickness and composition, reflecting the Moon's diverse geological history.
A moraine is a accumulation of rock debris, gravel, sand, and silt that is moved and deposited by a glacier. It is composed of a mixture of materials that the glacier has eroded and transported as it moves.
Accretion
Debris consists of fragments or material that remains after an object is damaged, wrecked, or destroyed. It can also apply to litter or refuse from an activity, such as marine debris along a seashore. In geology, debris is the rock, rubble, and other material left by geological activities (e.g. landslides, mudslides, volcanic eruptions, or glaciers).
"Organic rock" refers to a type of rock formation that is made up of natural materials such as shells, fossils, or organic debris. These rocks can provide important information about past environments and geological processes.
Moraines are formed by the accumulation of unconsolidated rock debris, such as sand, gravel, and boulders, that have been transported and deposited by glaciers. The debris is carried along by the moving glacier and then left behind as the glacier retreats or melts, creating ridges or mounds of sediment.
Geological stress is a force applied to a rock.
Sedimentary rock forms at Earth's surface through the accumulation and compression of sediment, like sand, clay, or organic debris, over time. Examples include sandstone, limestone, and shale.
